[ANN] Apache Tomcat 10.1.8 available
The Apache Tomcat team announces the immediate availability of Apache Tomcat 10.1.8. Apache Tomcat 10 is an open source software implementation of the Jakarta Servlet, Jakarta Server Pages, Jakarta Expression Language, Jakarta WebSocket, Jakarta Authentication and Jakarta Annotations specifications. Applications that run on Tomcat 9 and earlier will not run on Tomcat 10 without changes. Java EE applications designed for Tomcat 9 and earlier may be placed in the $CATALINA_BASE/webapps-javaee directory and Tomcat will automatically convert them to Jakarta EE and copy them to the webapps directory. This conversion is performed using the Apache Tomcat migration tool for Jakarta EE tool which is also available as a separate download for off-line use. The notable changes compared to 10.1.7 include: - Reduce the default value of maxParameterCount from 10,000 to 1,000. - Correct a regression in the fix for bug 66442 that meant that streams without a response body did not decrement the active stream count when completing leading to ERR_HTTP2_SERVER_REFUSED_STREAM for some connections. - Expand the validation of the value of the Sec-Websocket-Key header in the HTTP upgrade request that initiates a WebSocket connection. The value is not decoded but it is checked for the correct length and that only valid characters from the base64 alphabet are used. - Implement RFC 9239; note the MIME types for Javascript has changed to text/javascript. Please refer to the change log for the complete list of changes: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-10.1-doc/changelog.html Downloads: http://tomcat.apache.org/download-10.cgi Migration guides from Apache Tomcat 8.5.x and 9.0.x: http://tomcat.apache.org/migration.html Enjoy! - The Apache Tomcat team
[ANN] Apache Tomcat 8.5.88 available
The Apache Tomcat team announces the immediate availability of Apache Tomcat 8.5.88. Apache Tomcat 8 is an open source software implementation of the Java Servlet, JavaServer Pages, Java Unified Expression Language, Java WebSocket and JASPIC technologies. Apache Tomcat 8.5.88 is a bugfix and feature release. The notable changes compared to 8.5.87 include: - Reduce the default value of maxParameterCount from 10,000 to 1,000. - Correct a regression in the fix for bug 66442 that meant that streams without a response body did not decrement the active stream count when completing, leading to ERR_HTTP2_SERVER_REFUSED_STREAM for some connections. - Refactor synchronization blocks locking on SocketWrapper to use ReentrantLock to support users wishing to experiment with project Loom. - Implement RFC 9239; note the MIME types for Javascript has changed to text/javascript. Along with lots of other bug fixes and improvements. Please refer to the change log for the complete list of changes: https://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-8.5-doc/changelog.html Downloads: https://tomcat.apache.org/download-80.cgi Migration guides from Apache Tomcat 7.x and 8.0: https://tomcat.apache.org/migration.html Please note that Tomcat 8.5.x will reach End-of-life (EOL) on 31 March 2024.

[ANN] Apache Tomcat 11.0.0-M5 (alpha) available
The Apache Tomcat team announces the immediate availability of Apache Tomcat 11.0.0-M5 (alpha). Apache Tomcat 11 is an open source software implementation of the Jakarta Servlet, Jakarta Server Pages, Jakarta Expression Language, Jakarta WebSocket, Jakarta Authentication and Jakarta Annotations specifications. Users of Tomcat 10 onwards should be aware that, as a result of the move from Java EE to Jakarta EE as part of the transfer of Java EE to the Eclipse Foundation, the primary package for all implemented APIs has changed from javax.* to jakarta.*. This will almost certainly require code changes to enable applications to migrate from Tomcat 9 and earlier to Tomcat 10 and later. A migration tool is available to aid this process. Apache Tomcat 11.0.0-M5 is a milestone release of the 11.0.x branch and has been made to provide users with early access to the new features in Apache Tomcat 11.0.x so that they may provide feedback. The notable changes compared to 11.0.0-M4 include: - Reduce the default value of maxParameterCount from 10,000 to 1,000. - Correct a regression in the fix for bug 66442 that meant that streams without a response body did not decrement the active stream count when completing leading to ERR_HTTP2_SERVER_REFUSED_STREAM for some connections. - Expand the validation of the value of the Sec-Websocket-Key header in the HTTP upgrade request that initiates a WebSocket connection. The value is not decoded but it is checked for the correct length and that only valid characters from the base64 alphabet are used.
